Kyoto Gyoen is a co-star of cherry blossoms and peaches! The reason why the best time to see cherry blossoms is from late March to mid-April is long.
Kyoto Gyoen in the city of Kyoto.
Even though it is in the middle of Kyoto, you can enjoy cherry blossoms and cherry blossom viewing for a long time from late March to mid-April.
First of all, in late March, "Demizu no Sakura" blooms early in the top batter class in Kyoto.
It is very Kyoto-like that each cherry tree has a name.
In Tokyo, the names of famous places such as "Chidorigafuchi Sakura" and "Ueno Park Sakura" are not so much attached to the cherry tree itself.
Another good thing is when you go to Kyoto Gyoen to see the cherry blossoms in late March.
There is a "Tomoen" in Kyoto Gyoen, but this flower is in full bloom!
To be honest, it looks very similar to the petals of cherry blossoms. I didn't know.
This is a peach flower (I think it is, but if it is different, please correct it!).
It looks like a cherry blossom.
The colors of the flowers, pink and white, are exactly the same.
Pure white shines in the blue sky!
People should be sparse. After all, when you really love nature, it's better to be so sparse.
It is in full bloom. Sometimes peach blossoms are better than cherry blossoms and cherry blossoms.
In late March, "Itozakura", which is synonymous with cherry blossoms in Kyoto Gyoen, is in full bloom at this time.
"Itozakura" is located in the former Konoe Residence in Kyoto Gyoen National Garden.
Depending on the season, the crimson cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and the white flower cherry blossoms are in full bloom.
And in early April, the cherry blossoms in Kyoto Gyoen are in full bloom here and there.
Around this time, the "Sakura Car Return" is in full bloom.
The name comes from the fact that the emperor of the time saw the car back because of its beauty.
Well, the great thing about cherry blossoms in Kyoto is that each cherry blossom has an episode.
And here is "Izumi Sakura". It is a weeping cherry tree that represents Kyoto.
Yoshino cherry tree is good, but weeping cherry tree is also good. Somehow it is elegant.
Oh, I forgot!
Since 2018, the inside of the Kyoto Imperial Palace is basically open to the public,
The "Sakon-no-Sakura" next to Shishinden Hall can also be seen normally.
This gives you another reason to go to Kyoto Gyoen to see the cherry blossoms.
Of course, many nameless cherry blossoms are in bloom.
Moreover, there are many types. Weeping cherry blossoms, cold cherry blossoms, wild cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms, etc. are in full bloom.
Since there are many types, the time of full bloom is slightly different.
That is the reason why the cherry blossoms in Kyoto Gyoen are in full bloom from late March to mid-April.
I'm not very familiar with the types of cherry blossoms, but just by looking at them, I can see that the petals are completely different.
The cherry blossoms at Kyoto Gyoen may be quite valuable as a cherry blossom viewing spot in Kyoto.
This is because cherry blossom viewing in Kyoto is usually in the precincts of temples and shrines.
Other than Kyoto Gyoen, there are cherry blossom viewing spots that you can enjoy with your lunch as if you were on a picnic.
Maybe "along the Kamogawa", "Kamogawa Delta", "Maruyama Park", "Takaragaike Park".
Among them, Kyoto Gyoen may be the only spot where you can enjoy cherry blossom viewing under the cherry blossoms while feeling the history of Kyoto.
That's precious. There are also tables and benches.
Around the "Kamogawa Delta", college students have already done it,
It's perfect when you want to see the cherry blossoms in a more gentle picnic mood.
If you want to relax and enjoy cherry blossom viewing, we recommend the cherry blossoms and cherry blossom viewing at Kyoto Gyoen National Garden.
